Life happens

Yesterday I was in a car accident.It was pouring down rain and I was being much more cautious than usual, but this person didn't see me while I was going from a parking lot to another and hit my car.My car is now totaled, but I know Somebody was watching over me. I got bruises from the seat belt and my right arm got kind of burned from the airbag explosion, and am now wearing a splint for my broken wrist.I am so glad my children weren't with me in the car.For a millisecond I thought my time had come.Was I prepared? My children are all under 5 years old. Would they remember who their mom was and how much I love them? Would they have memories of the things we did together, of what were my dreams for them?

Now more than ever I am so glad that I discovered Heritage Makers and have been Storybooking since then...My children have books about them that will always remind them how special they are and how much they are loved. They will know their parent's love Story which will make them feel even more special.They will know our family Story through the yearbooks I have been creating, and they will know their family heritage through the genealogy posters, folds and books I have published.

I had many of my books with me in the car and when I saw the smoke coming from the air bags I feared that the car was going to take fire and I would have not only lost the car, but my precious books. Then I realized that my projects were preserved in my online account, and I could have printed as many copies as I wanted at any time, so my memories and my work weren't lost.

Don't wait for tomorrow to be the Heritage Maker in your home.Life happens.I know it now more than ever.

About Me

I am a Genealogist, Family Historian and Personal Publishing consultant.I love what I do. I truly enjoy helping people bring their heritage to life.
I am Italian, and proud of it, but as of January 2008, I am American too.
I was born in Italy and lived there for 30 years until, in 2003, I came to Florida to marry the Love of my Life, Chris and start our Eternal Family.
We now have 4 wonderful boys, Joseph, Jacob Luca and Mattia, and I love them more than anything!
That is why I love my job since it allows me to stay at home, take care of them, and at the same time bring income in my house helping others discover the power of Storybooking and the beauty of Creative Genealogy.

I love creating with Heritage Makers!It is so easy, and there are 65000 plus embellishments to choose from that help me create wonderful projects!I have always a project going and love the fact that they can be used for just about any special occasion: birthdays, graduation, weddings, anniversary, mothers day, father's day, Christmas, thank yous, just because...I love that I can make my special yearbooks, and write the story of my life to share with my children, so that they might know who their mom is.I lost my dad when I was 13, so I never had the chance to interview him. You never know when it's too late! Don't waste time, call your dear ones today and set a time to interview them ASAP, or even better, interview them on the phone!
